An engaging collection of poetry which invokes classical allusions while immersing itself in the land the poet loves, echoing early days in Michigan growing up on a farm, or listening to the wind soughing the pines through a screen door in Maine, or even as he absords the tableau of Manhattan's streets. But no matter where the poet observes human and natural life, his ambition remains the same: to become one with the wind, to remember the rain. Original wood engraving by Michael McCurdy.
